<h2>Current mailinglists</h2>


<b>To subscribe to a list</b>, send mail to <span
class=tt>listname-subscribe@perl.org</span>. The mailinglist manager
has a few nifty features. Mail <span
class=tt>listname-help@perl.org</span> to get information about
them. The most popular feature is the "get" function you can use to
request old mails from the archive. Very useful if you join a list and
want to catch up on what happened before you subscribed.

<dd> This is a "metalist" that gets all mails from all of the above
     mentioned lists. If you subscribe to perl6-all you'll always get
     all mails to all perl 6 mailinglists. You can setup procmail to
     filter on the <span class=tt>X-Mailing-List</span> header to
     filter on the original listname. You can't post directly to the
     perl6-all list, only through the "real lists".

     Subscribe by sending mail to <a
     href="mailto:perl6-all-subscribe@perl.org">perl6-all-subscribe@perl.org</a>.

<p>

<p>

There are also <A HREF="historical.html">many mailing lists</A> that
were used early in the perl6 process that are no longer being used.

<p>

Please don't include the posting addresses in links on the web. Always
use either the subscribe address or a link to an archive.
